A significant fire erupted last night in the western outskirts of Florence, engulfing shacks that are typically inhabited by homeless individuals. A team of 25 firefighters promptly responded to the emergency, working tirelessly to contain the flames. The swift action prevented the fire from spreading to nearby parked vehicles and the Ferrovie dello Stato workshops.

Despite the late-night intensity, there were no reported casualties as firefighters focused on excluding any presence of individuals within the affected area. With the flames now extinguished, attention has shifted to cleanup and safety operations in the vicinity. Authorities are investigating the cause of the fire as the community begins the process of recovery.
